Great Country Academician

Chapter 306 Another Nobel Prize Achievement

The news that a major accident occurred in the core fusion reactor JT-60SA of the QST Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute during the experiment cannot be concealed at all.

Soon, related information spread through the media and the Internet.

Hua Guo, after the relevant news was reposted by the media, it quickly rushed to the trending searches.

[Fuck, the controllable nuclear fusion reactor in Xiaotian blew up? 】

[The frying is good, the frying is wonderful, but the power is a little weaker. It would be great if it could cover the entire city of Edo. 】

[It really exploded? Beautiful! 】

[I hope there is something wrong! 】

[The price paid for breakthroughs in cutting-edge technology should be respected by everyone, not ridiculed! 】

[Yo yo yo, Li Zhongke is here? 】

[Is the little devil's technological breakthrough good for you? The dog man and the traitor speak for the little devil like this? 】

【Don't say that, after all, he is not a native of the country. It is a cherry dog. Isn't it normal for a dog to help its master talk. 】

On the Internet, netizens are discussing enthusiastically.

For the common people of Huaguo, most of them are applauding. After all, for some reason, both parties wish the other party to die.

Of course, there are always some clowns or pranksters trying to prove that they are different. After all, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and there are 1.4 billion people, so it's normal to have some strange things.

It's just that if these people are fine in other fields, but when it comes to hostile countries with feuds, they are immediately sprayed into a sieve by many netizens.

In the supercomputing center of Nanjing University, Xu Chuan came to the control room wearing an anti-static suit.

Almost a week has passed since the beginning of the calculation, and he is still checking the mathematical model of plasma turbulence in his hand.

NTU’s supercomputing performance is average, less than a petascale level, and it takes a certain amount of time to analyze and calculate tens of billions of hundreds of billions of eddy current units.

What's more, it is necessary to simulate deuterium-tritium raw material injection, heating antenna interference, first wall cooling cycle and other simulation numerical insertions, and the calculation amount is even greater.

Fortunately, the first round of calculations is almost finished, and it should be over today.

After getting the test data, he can optimize the model again, which can reduce a lot of performance requirements for supercomputing.

In the control center, some staff members are chatting. After all, the operation of the supercomputing does not require high attention all the time. It is only necessary to pay attention to the feedback code during the operation.

"I heard that Xiaobenzi's controllable nuclear fusion reactor exploded?"

"Well, what happened yesterday was terrible. The superconducting magnetron system lost control, causing the plasma to expand turbulently, and almost the entire reactor was blown up."

"Tsk tsk, I'm more curious about how much it costs to build this fusion experiment stack."

"Less say there are tens of billions of RMB. The JT-60SA fusion reactor was bombed this time. The largest one has been in operation for 20 or 30 years and has been upgraded many times."

"The controllable nuclear fusion reactor is also so dangerous? Doesn't it mean that the fusion reactor is not dangerous? Even if there is an accident, the destructive force will not be very great?"

"Who knows, my friend said it was pretty miserable anyway."

"Do you think there is a problem with the mathematical control model or something? The magnetic control system suddenly lost control. No matter how you look at it, it has something to do with the mathematical model?"

"Isn't our Professor Xu testing this? Will there be problems?"

In the control room, Xu Chuan listened to the chats of these staff members, and asked curiously: "You just said that the JT-60SA controllable nuclear fusion test reactor in Sakura Country exploded? Was there an accident?"

"Professor Xu."

"Professor Xu, you are here."

"."

Hearing his voice, these staff turned around quickly in surprise, and greeted him one after another, with embarrassment on their faces. Just now they were still discussing whether there was a problem with this mathematical model, and then they met the right owner .

Xu Chuan waved his hand and didn't care about it. He then asked, "Did an accident happen in the nuclear fusion experiment on the island country?"

Hearing this, a staff member quickly nodded and replied: "Yes, yesterday, a major safety accident occurred in the core fusion reactor JT-60SA of the QST Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute. I heard that the magnetic control system suddenly failed, causing the reactor A turbulent burst of ultra-high temperature plasma in the chamber damaged the entire fusion reactor."

Xu Chuan stroked his chin and replied with a smile, "Thank you, you guys should do your work first."

As he spoke, he walked towards his temporary office, and by the way, he took out his mobile phone and searched for relevant information.

Looking at the news report on the mobile phone, Xu Chuan had a smile in his eyes: "Interesting, it seems that people from the small island country took those manuscripts from my office, and this time they made a big mistake."

He knows the core fusion reactor JT-60SA of the QST Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute.

This is the largest fusion experimental reactor in the small island country. It began to serve in 1985. After several modifications, the investment in it is tens of billions of RMB.

Now it's blown up, although I don't know the specific situation, but at least a few billion will definitely be gone.

It's even possible that the entire core area might be scrapped. After all, things like controllable nuclear fusion reactors are quite sophisticated.

If the core area is gone, it will really be a heavy loss.

Two months, although it is enough for the other party to understand the manuscript and complete the mathematical model in a targeted manner.

But modeling plasma turbulence in a controlled fusion reactor has never been easier.

Don’t say you are a theft imitator, it is his genuine product, and he is still testing the phenomenology model, but it is not known how long it will take to apply it to the controllable nuclear fusion experimental reactor for actual testing. .

Before applying it to a controllable nuclear fusion reactor, he has to further test and optimize the mathematical model.

After that, we have to find a way to obtain detailed operation data of the plasma turbulence in the fusion reactor, which is also a big trouble.

After all, the current observations of plasma turbulence in controllable nuclear fusion reactors are almost general and phenomenological, and there is no accurate observation data.

After obtaining accurate observation data, the model needs to be optimized again, and after optimization, the supercomputing can be used to check the calculation, and finally the fusion reactor can be actually used.

There are still four or five steps to go in the middle, but Yinghua Guo directly skipped these, and at most used a supercomputer to check the calculation, plus the hole he dug in the manuscript paper before, who will die if you don’t die?

JT-60SA, the largest fusion experiment pile, exploded, and this time it can be said that the loss was heavy.

But for this, Xu Chuan just wanted to say: "You deserve it! I told you not to learn well and steal other people's things!"

After obtaining the test data he needed at the Supercomputing Center, Xu Chuan returned to Nanjing University.

The preliminary checking calculation is completed, and the rest is to use these test data to optimize the mathematical model of plasma turbulence.

But this is a big job, and he can't finish it by himself for the time being. He can only deal with it after Peng Hongxi recruits enough personnel and finalizes the project base for the controllable nuclear fusion project.

As for now, it was time for him to do something else.

Writing a Daritz Diagram for Inert Neutrinos!

With the joint support of the two physics teams of Nantah University and Jiaotong University, the data analysis of the inert neutrinos has been completed long ago. He just said that he has been busy modeling plasma turbulence and has no time to do this.

Now that the numerical control model of plasma turbulence has come to an end, it is also time for him to finish the data analysis of the sterile neutrinos.

After all, these are particles related to dark matter and dark energy. If the real existence is completely confirmed, it will undoubtedly be a sensational result in the world.

In Nanjing University, in the office, Xu Chuan turned on the computer, took out the analysis data sent by Chen Zhengping, and began to draw the Daritz diagram for the inertial neutrinos.

As soon as the drawing tool was turned on, his eyes fell on Amelia who was studying in the office.

After thinking about it, he said, "Amelia, I remember that you studied mathematics and physics before""

Amelia, who was studying the question, turned her head and looked over when she heard the voice: "Well, what's the matter, Professor?"

Xu Chuan: "Come here, you can draw the Daritz diagram of the inert neutrino instead of me. In the process, I will teach you how to use mathematics to calculate the properties of physical particles. In the future, you can follow me to learn some aspects of mathematical physics. s things."

"As for how much you can learn, that's up to you."

Hearing this, Amelia's eyes lit up, she quickly got up and walked over: "I will work hard, professor!"

Xu Chuan nodded. To the two students Amelia and Gu Bing, to be honest, he only fulfilled the responsibility of an ordinary tutor.

Although he can usually teach them some knowledge and concepts in mathematics, the real core of himself has not been touched and learned by these two students.

For example, using mathematics to study physics, using mathematical methods to calculate the performance and parameter information of physical particles, this is what he researched when he was doing experiments at CERN.

This is the method he used to solve the mystery of the proton radius and to find the coupling phenomenon between Higgs and Yukawa of the third generation heavy quark.

For the high-energy physics community, this approach is undoubtedly of great importance.

But so far, very few people understand this method.

Even if he used this method to exchange the support of the CERN Council when he was in CERN a few years ago, and in exchange for Hua Guo to join CERN as a member state, there are still not many people who can understand this set of theories and concepts.

On the one hand, without the personal guidance of his creator, even if there are some papers left, it is impossible to get started quickly.

After all, there are two completely different concepts between having a tutor and self-study without a tutor.

On the other hand, this set of calculation methods requires both deep knowledge of mathematics and physics. There are really not many scholars with this ability in the fields of mathematics and physics today.

So after thinking about it, Xu Chuan felt that he could teach Amelia this mathematical method. After all, a teacher and a student have to teach something.

And Amelia is indeed very suitable for this. Her talents in mathematics and physics are very good, and she may be able to blaze her own path on this road in the future.

On the other side, Gu Bing looked at his mentor eagerly, he wanted it too!

Noticing the gaze of another student, Xu Chuan shook his head with a smile, and said, "This path is not suitable for you, you should continue on mathematics."

After thinking about it, he added another sentence: "When I have time, I will think about it and see if there is one that suits you."

After all, they are the same students, so a bowl of water must be level, and it is wrong to be indifferent to each other.

Although Gu Bing's talent is not as good as Amelia's, it is not impossible to solve some difficult problems after studying mathematics.

Hearing this, Gu Bing nodded vigorously, looking forward to it.

Although he regretted that he was not able to learn mathematics and physics from Xu Chuan, he also knew very well that his talent was far inferior to Amelia.

It was already very difficult for him to learn [Algebraic Variety and Group Mapping Tools] from Xu Chuan, but it was easy for Amelia.

Including the two working together on the mathematical problem "Bloch's conjecture" used as a graduation thesis, Amelia contributed a little more.

In the office, Xu Chuan instructed Amelia to draw the Daritz diagram, while teaching her some knowledge in the fields of high-energy physics and particle physics during the process.

If you want to study mathematics and physics with him, this cannot be completed in a short period of time, and you cannot finish this subject in at least three to five years.

Day by day, nearly a week has passed. Under the guidance of Xu Chuan, Amelia completed the second drawing of the Daritz diagram of the inert neutrino. The road of mathematics has crossed the road of mathematical physics.

Xu Chuan checked the complete Daritz diagram and saved it after confirming that there was no problem.

It is the second time to draw the Daritz diagram of the inertial neutrinos. Some different verification points are enough to increase the confidence of the inertial neutrinos by a large margin.

He calculated, and with another data analysis, the confidence level of the inert neutrinos could be raised to 5 sigma.

According to CERN's plan, the second full-scale collision experiment is scheduled for September. Calculating the time, it should be almost completed now. After all, it will be in the middle and late September.

At the end of September, the data of the second collision experiment with the observation of sterile neutrinos was transmitted from CERN.

This time, Xu Chuan had time to work with the NJTU team on raw data analysis.

With his joining, the efficiency of data analysis has been greatly improved.

"Senior Brother Qi, are you done with that?"

In the middle of the night, a certain floor of the NTU's School of Materials Building was brightly lit. Lin Feng, who returned to China in 2018, put down the mouse in his hand, stretched himself, and then shouted to the other side of the office.

"Wait for me for ten minutes, and it should be done."

On the other side, Qi Xishao replied without raising his head, and continued to tap the keyboard and mouse in his hand.

After waiting for ten minutes, Qi Xishao stood up, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Lin Feng who was playing with his mobile phone on the other side, and asked, "It's finally settled, do you want to go out for a supper?"

Lin Feng shook his head, with a tired look on his face, and said, "No, I'd better go back to sleep. After that junior brother ran over, I haven't had a good night's sleep recently. Now that I'm done, I have to catch up on sleep quickly. , or you will die suddenly sooner or later."

Qi Xishao chuckled, and said: "Indeed, I was never so tired when I was at CERN, but when he came, I was swept up in the sky."

"It starts at eight o'clock in the morning and ends at ten o'clock in the evening. I work twelve or thirteen hours a day, and it's still mental work like data analysis. Even a real robot can't handle it."

Lin Feng shook his head, feeling groggy. During this period of time, in order to expedite the analysis of the data assigned to him, he was fighting with his life.

That little junior brother is really not a human being, relying on his youth to torment their group of old comrades in their thirties.

Alas, when I'm thirty, I can't help soaking wolfberries in the thermos.

Fortunately, the data analysis work is over, and with the efficiency of that junior, the discovery of inertial neutrinos will be published soon.

Particles involving dark matter and dark energy are undoubtedly a Nobel Prize-winning discovery.

I just don't know how the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences will choose this time. After all, in history, there are not no scientists who have won the Nobel Prize twice.

Mrs. Curie, Professor Linus Pauling, Professor John Bardeen, etc. have all won the Nobel Prize twice, but there is really no one as young as their junior.

But is there an exception for the Nobel Prize? Not impossible.

PS: I'm not feeling well today, and I'm not in a good condition, so I'll just update it, go to bed early and add another update tomorrow.
